This should be done with the kmlpropertysetter in the workspace but it is not working, my version of FME is 2017.1.2.1 This is a part of the fme-desktop-basic-training-2017 what is wrong?

Have you tried if the "Transformation-Ex7-Complete-Advanced.fmw" make the job? If yes, you probably forget to set "something". Keep me inform

What @lau said, that excercises can be a bit tricky to do, so take a look at the completed version that's also in the data package and compare that to what you've been doing.

The "Transformation-Ex7-Complete-Advanced.fmw" is not working, I have tried all kind of settings and nothing is working. Can it be something wrong with the FME 2017.1.2.1 version? Any suggestions is appreciated? Best Johan

I have 2017.1.2.0 (build 17222) and it's working fine for me. Can you elaborate a bit on what is not working? What happens when you open the complete workspace and hit run? Do you get any error messages in the log?

Check it in Google Earth. A 3d KML extrusion is really 2d geometry with an extrusion atribute

Hi! I have now opend the file in Arcgis eart, it works fine and seam to have been working all the time, its just that you cant se .kml in 3D in the inspector, why is this? It can handel almost all other fromats!? It would be great if there was some info about this in the exercise.

As I said earlier: it's really just 2D geometry with an attribute that tells Google Earth to extrude it into 3D. Google Earth can handle that, ArcGIS too as it seems, but the Data Inspector not.

 

 

When I teach this course I always make sure to point that out to my trainees.
